I'm not sure how the US expected to bring the concept of democracy (1 person = 1 vote) to a land where women apparently are not considered humans but more like livestock.

Oh I'm sorry, did my 10 year old dog daughter interfere with your life, I'll it put down immediately.

It's one thing to be culturally sensitive and not push "western" ideals onto another culture, it's another thing to look away while an innocent 10 year old child had to endure rape and them may feel even more pain thinking minutes before she dies that she shamed her family.

Maybe it's a father in me talking, but personally I would have taken the mullah to the back of my house, beaten him silly and let my dogs have dinner.  Guess I'm a westerner.

Quality of life for Afghan women has got worse since the invasion. All of this Western blubbering about bringing democracy to the Middle East is a complete sham. A lot of the same tribal leaders who brutalized women in the past are still in power.
